Chelsea ace Alvaro Morata has struggled this season
“Morata is a confidence player, he’s an excellent finisher, whereas Giroud holds the play up far better.
“Against Man City, you want someone who’s going to get hold of the ball and keep possession, so for me Giroud starts.”
Wise reckons Maurizio Sarri should have splashed out on a new forward in the summer.
Sarri bolstered his midfield options and replaced Thibaut Courtois with Kepa Arrizabalaga.

However, Wise insists the Italian should have been contacting Leicester about Vardy.
"I would’ve looked to bring in a third striker over the summer, someone who guarantees goals," Wise, speaking as he launched the inaugural Sportsperson with a Personality Awards sponsored by kwiff, said.
“You’re not going to get Aguero, you’re not going to get Kane, but for me there’s a third option in Jamie Vardy.
“He’s a natural goalscorer in a team that doesn’t create loads of chances, I think he’d be fantastic in the Chelsea side.”
The Blues have been linked with Inter Milan sensation Mauro Icardi.
